Thereafter, the first admission rejection routine program is terminated.

  FIG. 10 shows a display example of the first notification screen displayed on the display unit 30A of the control target operation panel by the process of step 204 of the first admission rejection process routine program. As shown in the figure, on the first notification screen according to the present embodiment, the message “The door cannot be opened because there is a protection target at the entrance. Please refrain from entering the room.” Is displayed. . Therefore, by referring to the first notification screen, the entrance target person can easily grasp that the entrance target door is locked and the reason for the lock. Note that the first notification screen shown in FIG. 10 is also an example, and it goes without saying that other display screens may be used such as, for example, switching display contents depending on the security level of the person to be entered.

  When the first admission refusal processing routine program ends, the process returns to step 102 of the building monitoring program (main routine).

  On the other hand, if a negative determination is made in step 108, the process proceeds to step 114, and the security level information associated with all the target identification information read by the processing of step 106 is read from the security level information database DB1. Whether or not a monitoring target having a lower rank than the entrance target exists in the entrance partition area by determining whether or not the target rank is higher than the lowest rank indicated by the read security level information. When a negative determination is made, the process proceeds to step 118 described later, whereas when an affirmative determination is made, the process proceeds to step 116.

  In step 116, the second entry rejection processing routine program is executed. Hereinafter, the second admission rejection routine program will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing of the second admission rejection routine / program, which is also stored in advance in the program area PG of the secondary storage unit 20D.

  In step 300 of the figure, the door 92 (entrance target door) that the entrance target person intends to enter is specified based on the arrangement position of the tag reader 50 that is the transmission source of the target identification information received by the processing of step 102 above. The specified entry target door is controlled to be locked by the corresponding locking / unlocking unit 60.

Control to generate. In the building monitoring system 10 according to the present embodiment, the buzzer sound is applied as the predetermined sound. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, a predetermined message or the like is reproduced by the alarm unit 30C. You may do it.

  In the next step 304, control is performed so that a predetermined second notification screen is displayed for a predetermined period (in this embodiment, 5 seconds) on the display unit 30A provided on the control target operation panel, Thereafter, the second admission rejection routine program is terminated.

  FIG. 12 shows a display example of the second notification screen displayed on the display unit 30A of the control target operation panel by the process of step 304 of the second admission rejection process routine program. As shown in the figure, on the second notification screen according to the present embodiment, the message “The door cannot be opened because there is a non-contact target at the entrance. Please refrain from entering the room.” Is displayed. The Therefore, by referring to the second notification screen, the entrance target person can easily grasp that the entrance target door is locked and the reason for the lock. Note that the second notification screen shown in FIG. 12 is also an example, and it goes without saying that other display screens may be used, such as switching display contents depending on the security level of the person to be entered.

  When the second entrance rejection processing routine program ends, the process returns to step 102 of the building monitoring program (main routine).

  On the other hand, in step 118 of the building monitoring program, the door 92 (entrance target door) that the entrance target person intends to enter based on the location of the tag reader 50 that is the transmission source of the target identification information received in the processing of step 102 above. And the specified entrance target door is controlled to be unlocked by the corresponding locking / unlocking unit 60.

  In the next step 120, image information obtained by capturing a moving image by the camera 40 corresponding to the entrance door is sequentially input and stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 20B. In the next step 122, the input image information is stored. Based on this, it is determined whether or not the entrance target door has been closed. If a negative determination is made, the process returns to step 120, while when an affirmative determination is made, the process proceeds to step 124.

  In step 124, the entrance target door is controlled to be locked by the corresponding locking / unlocking unit 60, and in the next step 126, based on the image information stored in the predetermined area of the RAM 20B by the processing of step 120 to step 122. If the number of visitors to the entrance section area is determined by the person position detection function described above and the result is negative, a person whose target identification information has not been detected is so-called In step 128, the forced exit processing routine program for executing the processing for forcibly leaving the unauthorized visitors is executed, and the process returns to step 102.
